Kristen Meinzer and Jolenta Greenberg, hosts of the podcast "How to Be Fine," discuss how to approach conversations with friends about sharing the kinkeeping burden more evenly.

“THE HORRORS OF SENSORY DEPRIVATION” #WeirdDarknessRadio WEEK OF JAN 19-25, 2025==========HOUR ONE: According to the song, silence is golden. And it really can be; there are plenty of times when we just want to shut everything out and relax in peace and quiet. But silence isn't always all it's cracked up to be, either, and too much silence can drive you mad. It all starts with being able to hear your own organs working, and after about 45 minutes, you'll start to hallucinate. Silence—and other types of sensory deprivation—can do some weird things to the body and mind… and to the planet. (The Disturbing Effects of Sensory Deprivation) *** A U.S. Air-Force chaplain is called to duty not against a human enemy – but a spiritual one. (Air Force Exorcist)==========HOUR TWO: Allegedly, in the fall of 1943 a U.S. Navy destroyer was made invisible and teleported from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Norfolk, Virginia, in an incident known as the Philadelphia Experiment. Records in the Archives Branch of the Naval History and Heritage Command have been repeatedly searched, but no documents have been located which confirm the event, or any interest by the Navy in attempting such an achievement. But then, those who came to this conclusion probably didn't interview Duncan Cameron and Al Bielek. They were onboard the ship when it happened. The two sides of the Philadelphia Experiment. (Time Traveling Brothers) *** While it may look picturesque during the day, worthy of a post card, the town of Pluckley in Kent, UK is known as a place where you will often hear something go bump in the night. (Paranormal Pluckley) *** A man has a frightening experience after checking into a hotel. But then, what would you expect if the rumor is that the place is haunted?

What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

Why do we find it hard to stay connected to our friends without kids? Does the total separation of our daily experience, once we become parents, mean those friendships cannot remain the same? Allison P. Davis's recent cover story for New York magazine, When One Friend Has a Baby and the Other Doesn't, explored this dilemma from the childfree-by-choice point of view. Here's our own take on how our friendships have morphed and changed since we became parents. In this episode we discuss: Why our friends without kids aren't wrong to be annoyed by us sometimes Why we're not conditioned to put the same amount of effort into friendships as we do other relationships How to know if a friendship is worth the long-term effort Here are links to some other resources mentioned in this episode: Christine Organ for Motherly: Motherhood feels lonelier than ever Fortesa Latifi for The Washington Post: "Spoon theory: What it is and how I use it to manage chronic illness" Sign up for the What Fresh Hell newsletter!

“I don't need any more reasons to hate the human race,” a friend said, about his aversion of watching the new Netflix series “The Most Hated Man on the Internet.” Is its subject, Hunter Moore, who revels in posting revenge porn and tweeting things like, “Fuck bitches, get money, do blow,” easy to hate? That would be a resounding yes. And yet, as Nancy and Sarah discuss, the internet of the aughts was like opening a door on a cyclone, the people who stepped inside often having no appreciation for how their lives could be wrecked with one click. Oh how things have changed since 2012 …Or have we just stepped into a different sort of storm, one that does not carry us off but keeps us walking in place? After praising the crack writing of Allison P. Davis's essay about her ten years on Tinder, Sarah wonders if dating apps keep people on “the hedonic treadmill,” Nancy questions whether engineering one's choice of partner axiomatically cuts out the mystery, and both agree (hope?) the pursuit of love and/or sex might be hacked in one's favor. The girls give their hotbox picks of the week before Nancy has to jet early to a very important hair coloring appointment.*Not here for hook-ups, but we do promise a deep and mutually beneficial relationship if you become a free or paid subscriber.

It's been practically impossible to move for the last two weeks without being told about 'the vibe shift'. We've all heard its coming, but what does it even mean? This week on The Sleepover Club Ione and Halima are discussing the viral essay by Allison P. Davis titled ‘A Vibe Shift Is Coming. Will any of us survive it?' for The Cut.The changing course of culture is inevitable, but with so much of our lives being played out online, can huge cultural swathes really effect the majority of us? How does a vibe change when so many of us exist in tiny online micro-communities? Historically, we've swayed between ultra-political and entirely apathetic, with the overwhelming mood being that our current vibe shift will see an end to political-everything and the embracing of irony and having fun. But can't we do both? Can't we be happy, socially aware, and enjoy our lives while fighting for the things we believe in? What can the vibe shift tell us about feminism? Is the vibe shift a patriarchal tool? Only time will tell. Want to support the podcast? If you're a brand or organisation that could help us continue the show, Please fill in this form.

On this episode, we're on an emotional rollercoaster with Janicza Bravo's 2021 crime drama/comedy, Zola, based on the viral Twitter thread by Detroit waitress A'Ziah "Zola" King in October 2015. It stars Taylour Paige as the titular protagonist, and Riley Keough as the shady lady who roped Zola into a nightmarish weekend in Florida. It's possibly our shortest Hot Probs segment to date, as Bravo knocks this one out of the park. This discussion inspires a new t-shirt (it's always a good idea to MIND THE VIBES) and several P.S.A.'s. You won't wanna miss this Lunchtime Poll, as we tell stories of times we got in over our heads with some sketchy people.  PS: Forget that Rolling Stone article. Allison P.

You're receiving my Tuesday podcast because you're a paying subscriber of Maybe Baby. Thank you! To listen in your preferred app, click “Listen in podcast app.” Then it should automatically populate there every week.Hey,This week I invited Allison P. Davis onto the podcast to talk about horniness! It would be really wild if I chose that topic arbitrarily but I didn't: Allison is writing a book right now about horniness (it's called, if you can imagine, Horny) and my last newsletter was all about anticipation, which is basically existential horniness. We found some much to talk about in the liminal space between these two things. The nature of desire, the upsides and downsides of centering your life around it, etc.You might know Allison for her popular work at New York Magazine, like The Karen Next Door or her profiles of Mariah Carey or Lena Dunham. Or maybe you know her from Twitter or IG @babymeatballs. If you don't know her I'm glad you're here. You should fill out her horny survey!Some links to things we mention:Esther Perell's Mating in Captivity“Ghost of a Good Thing” by Dashboard Confessional (obviously)Do What You Love by Miya TokumitsuThanks for listening,HaleyP.S. This is a weird post-script I'm adding at 11pm on Monday but the news of another mass shooting tonight is almost beyond comprehension. A lot of my newsletter/podcast touches on how broken this country is but it's still jarring to be faced with it in increasingly fucked up ways so often. I don't even know what to say at this point except I hope we can manage to pull through this dark era. Anyway, I know tragedies are happening everywhere all the time, but I'm really sorry to anyone who felt at all alienated by the optimism of my pre-planned newsletter and podcast for this past week. I hope it's served as some kind of levity for some, if nothing else. Hang in there (dumb thing to say, there's nothing to say!). This month a portion of subscriber proceeds will be redistributed to GlobalGiving Coronavirus Relief Fund, a non-profit focused on equitable vaccine distribution and getting resources to those made especially vulnerable by the pandemic. Give me feedback • Subscribe • Request a free subscription • Ask Dear Baby a question This is a public episode.
